I was chatting with a girlfriend the other day who was venting about how she was dreading the cold weather here in New England. She doesn’t feel like herself in the cold months because dressing cute in the warmer months was so much easier.
I totally get it!
In the summer, less efforts and thought has to go into your outfit. Just throw on a dress, slip on some sandals and go, right?
And if I had this conversation four years ago, I’d have totally agreed. I was the girl with the poor bare legs, cringing on the streets of Boston all for the sake of “looking cute”. Oh no. I’d never do that now!
Winter fashion can still be chic, pretty and feel like ‘you’.. it’s all about layers!
Not only layers, but purchasing them in neutral colors that you can swap in and out with a varying base.
Whether you’re looking for pieces to revamp a dress from last year or searching for the perfect Christmas dress, I hope today’s post helps!

Whether you’re looking for outfit inspiration for any formal Christmas or Hanukkah dinners, work holiday parties or church events, I hope you find something here! I love dressing for the holidays because you can play on fun textures like faux fur, metallics and velvet while also pulling on dreamy colors like emerald green and burgundy.
If you live in a cold climate, you can still wear pretty pieces this time of year and have fun with your wardrobe. The cold doens’t need to hinder you! I just work with layers. That’s why I have an entire section below where I featured layers like my favorite tights that smooth you out and chic coats like this faux fur black jacket.
I just purchased this stunning piece that’s under $80 and I’ll certainly layer on that faux fur jacket.
If you’re looking for some less formal pieces, I have a widget below which dresses like this turtleneck sweater dress that’s under $60. This one looks cozy too.

You don’t always need to purchase new clothing pieces. that’s just not feasible! I love to bring a new life to older dresses this tie of year by grabbing a new pair of earrings or hair bow. That way, you only spend $30 or less and feel spruced up!
